Off-Grid Solar in New Zealand: A Complete Guide to Going Off the Grid with Solar Power

Earlier this year, LONGi launched their new 370W solar panel range, and we are very happy to tell you that we now have this latest technology available in New Zealand! Providing higher power, higher efficiency half-cut PERC solar technology at a better price point.

ZEN Energy Systems’ solar panel manufacturing partner, LONGi Solar, has created a new World Record conversion efficiency for Mono-crystalline PERC solar modules. This is another exciting accomplishment to add to the many accolades already won by LONGi throughout its business history. As a world leading manufacturer of high-efficiency mono-crystalline solar cells and modules, LONGi Solar

Solar with energy storage is the best way to use solar power around the clock and to utilise the excess supply generated by a solar power system. In our last blog, we talked about the entry-level option - using a solar diverter.

There is no doubt that having a solar power system at your home will help to lower your power bill, as well as being good for the environment. However, as the timing of electricity consumption and solar generation isn’t always aligned, there is the issue of dealing with the excess supply of solar power.

New Zealand is steadily evolving as a solar powered country, with an increasing number of residential homes electing to install solar energy. With the trend having already gained momentum and significant penetration in many countries, including Australia, the U.S, and China, the uptake of solar power for residential use is now starting to increase at

Solar power is one of the fastest-growing sources of new energy worldwide, with technology in the solar industry continuing to evolve. The latest technology on that mainstream path is Half-Cut Cell solar panels, which has an anticipated growth in market share from 5% in 2018 to nearly 40% in 2028

Successful integration of solar into breweries - The Sawmill Brewery. Sustainability is a crucial part of The Sawmill Brewery philosophy.

Solar panels are primarily made from silicon, with other materials added, to enable an electrical reaction when in contact with sun derived light. This reaction creates an electrical charge, in the form of DC (direct current) power.

Solar panels on commercial buildings are well known for cost-savings and adding to an organisation’s sustainability profile. What is less known is their ability to cool buildings and prolong commercial roof life. This article explores these topics.
